Joe Rogan Experience #2544 - Chris Williamson · Aired Aug 21, 2026
Claim summary · not a verbatim quotation
Victoria's Secret share price increased 300% year-on-year due to the influence of Ozempic sales.
The finding
What the evidence shows
The move is real and the GLP-1 link is not made up, but the number is loose. Victoria's Secret roughly tripled over the past year and hit an all time high of $102.46 in August 2026, and Wells Fargo upgraded the stock partly on GLP-1 users dropping sizes and replacing their wardrobes. A tripling is a 200% rise, not 300%, and analysts treat weight loss drugs as one driver among several rather than the cause.
